The Last Peep

THE LAST PEEP


The dawn knocked at the night’s door
That was sleeping on the time’s floor
Sunrays rushed in, starting to play
Night out went, and in came the day

Stars, at once, vanished from the sky 
As the sun proudly climbed up high
Over the clear skies rode with glee
His likeness upon the waters trying to see

I observed him gallop from East to West
When his work was done, he wanted to rest
Kissed the day goodnight, all set ready to sleep
But before going down HE had a very last PEEP!

A poem, about night and day. It is briliant how the sun says good night and takes a last peep. Thanks for sharing. Lucilla

Very nice. I love poems of nature. especially ones that involve the suns journey across the sky. This was quite enjoyable. I don't mean to toot my own horn but I have a few if you would like to read. They are, "The Crimson Lips Of Dawn" and "The Passing Of A Day". Thanks for sharing. Rockman :-)
